Published: December 2017

Autophosphorylation of kinases influences their conformational state and can also regulate enzymatic activity. Recently, this has become an area of interest for drug discovery. Using Alk2 as an example, we present two protocols - one based on phosphate-binding Alphascreen beads, the other on coupled luminescence measurements of ADP formation - that can be used to screen for inhibitors of autophosphorylation.

The ongoing increase in the prevalence and mutation rate of the influenza virus remains a critical global health issue. A promising strategy for antiviral drug development involves targeting the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase, specifically the PB2-cap binding domain of Influenza A H5N1. This study employs an in-silico approach to inhibit this domain, crucial for viral replication, using potential inhibitors derived from marine bacterial compounds.
